But the outfit is only half the battle. Racing season is all about accessorising, accessorising, accessorising.
Headwear - fascinators are out!
That’s right. We hate to break it to you. The classic lace-trimmed fascinators that have been dominating race day fashion for so long have finally fallen off the style radar.
Instead, this season is all about large hats, headbands and delicate crowns.
Morgan & Taylor Matador Baby Blue Boater Hat, $55.96
The boater is a classic race day style. The wide brim is elegant and classy while also practically saving you from the beating sun.
FORD MILLINERY Yellow Oversized Bow Headband, $289.95
Racing season is all about taking daring risks, and this oversized bow does precisely that. It brings a quirky, innocent twist to an otherwise formal outfit.
FORD MILLINERY Hummingbird Fascinator, $359.95
This takes the pimped-out headband to a whole new level. It’s a modern and avant-garde twist on the typical flower crown and sure to turn heads.
OLGA BERG Lillian Metal Tulle Headband, $99.95
This handmade headband gives the appearance of a delicate tiara without being in your face about it. Its tulle and beading gives it a subtle, beautiful appearance.
HEATHER McDowall Courtney, $209
Show you’re the queen of the track with this white teardrop embellished crown. It's a very subtle piece but would sparkle in the sunshine.
Don't forget these accessories!
While your headpiece and dress may be the two most significant factors in your outfit, sometimes the best look is all in the details.
Olga Berg Caylee Flap Over Top Handle Bag, $69.96
Racing season is all about showing your flair for fashion, and this unique shoulder bag is the perfect way to do just that. The wooden and faux-crocodile bag in baby pink is a kitschy-cool accessory.
SLIP Reusable Silk Face Covering, $45
It’s probably inevitable that you’ll need to wear a mask at some point during your day, so don’t let it ruin your outfit. This breathable silk mask is stylish and practical.
Verali Amaya Wedges, $79.95
If you’ve been to the races before, you’ll know they’re held on grass, and they’re a long day. Stick your stilettos back in your wardrobe and opt for a comfy yet stylish pair of wedges instead.
Tony Bianco Ted Flapover Blue Crossbody Bag, $89.95
This vegan leather baby blue bag is large enough to store your phone and wallet while not being unwieldy. The slouch clutch is very ‘in’ right now, so make sure to get your hands on this.
Bianc Ocean Earrings, $129
Large gaudy earrings are a thing of the past. This season’s statement jewellery is delicate items like this gold and pearl drop earring.
